Transcription

1 CA EDUCATION COURSE DESCRIPTION CA Data Center Infrastructure Management r4.3: Administration Bundle Course Overview CA Datacenter Infrastructure Management (CA DCIM) captures detailed real-time information about energy use across your data centers and operational facilities, helping you to measure, trend, alert, and take action. PRODUCT RELEASE CA Data Center Infrastructure Management r4.3 This bundle consists of four courses that should be completed in this order: CA Data Center Infrastructure Management r4.x: General Overview 200 (33DCI20090): This course will cover a high level overview describing what DCIM is, the benefits of DCIM, DCIM use cases, the role of CA ecometer and CA Visual Infrastructure. CA ehealth r6.1: Operator 200 (02EHL20090): In this course, you will be introduced to the main features and enhanced functionality in CA ehealth r6.1, including the main features of OneClick for CA ehealth, which you can use to verify that Scheduled reports and database backups have run successfully. CA ecometer r4.0: Administration 200(33ECO20011): This course will provide the hands-on experience an administrator needs to create, integrate, manage, report and monitor your Data center using CA ecometer. CA Visual Infrastructure r4.6: Administration 200 (33VIF20011): This course will provide you with the knowledge you need to manage and connect devices, create alarms and monitor systems. You will learn to view both device and rack level data related to weight, power consumption, heat dissipation and available space.
